This Week's Spotlight

The WateReuse Association and Research Foundation announce a plan to merge the leadership of their organizations to more aggressively address the challenges that local communities face in meeting growing demands for water supplies in the context of drought, climate change, aging infrastructure, environmental degradation, and an increasingly complex web of federal, state, and local regulations.

A new WateReuse White Paper provides recommendations for EPA's new Water Infrastructure and Resiliency Finance Center. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined Vice President Biden on January 16, 2015 to announce the Center, which will serve as a resource to communities to improve their wastewater, drinking water and stormwater systems, particularly through innovative financing and increased resiliency to climate change.

For the first time, WateReuse is joining forces with other water groups to host the National Water Policy Forum, Fly-In & Expo, the anchor event of Water Week 2015, in Washington, D.C. on April 13–15, 2015. The Policy Forum will feature distinguished speakers, sessions, Capitol Hill visits, and regulatory roundtables.
